Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a perfumed fertilizer capable of preserving fragrance for about one month by granulating or molding the fertilizer after mixing a fragrant material prepd. by adsorbing or including an adsorptive material or clathrate material with the fertilizer. CONSTITUTION:The title perfumed fertilizer is obtd. by mixing a fragrant material adorbed or included to/in an adsorptive or clathrate material with an inorganic fertilizer, org. fertilizer or mixed fertilizer thereof, then granulating or molding the mixture. Suitable adsorptive materials are peat, grass peat, coal, humic acid, zeolite, diatomaceous earth, bentonite, etc. Suitable clathrate material is cyclodextrin, etc. When said perfumed fertilizer is manured to land, the fragrant material is not dissolved in water given for the growth of vegetables unlike the fertilizer, so the fragrance is preserved for a long period.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a scented fertilizer, which is mainly used as a fertilizer for home gardening, a fertilizer for potted plants for interior decoration, and Used as fertilizer for flower gardening.

Conventionally, when inorganic fertilizers, organic fertilizers, or mixed fertilizers are used for home gardening or potted plants for indoor interior decoration, the odor peculiar to fertilizers causes discomfort to people, so it is necessary to eliminate this odor. Furthermore, fragrant substances have been sprayed directly onto fertilizers or added to fertilizers and kneaded in order to give off a fragrance.

However, the problem with fertilizers imparted with fragrance in this way is that the fragrance is lost within 2 to 3 days, or within 6 to 7 days at the most, and the fragrance cannot be maintained for a longer period of time.

However, since fertilizers are often applied to potted plants every 1 to 5 months, it is desired to provide a scented fertilizer that can maintain its aroma throughout the application period.

The present invention was developed in view of the above-mentioned situation, and it is possible to maintain the aroma mixed in fertilizer for a long period of about one month, until the next fertilization time. An object of the present invention is to provide a young fertilizer that has a relatively long shelf life and is suitable for application to, for example, interior potted plants.

The present invention will be explained in detail below.

A feature of the present invention for reducing the amount of fertilizer is a young fertilizer prepared by mixing various fertilizers with an aromatic substance adsorbed or included in an adsorbent substance or an clathrate substance, and then granulating or molding the mixture.

The present invention targets inorganic fertilizers, organic fertilizers, or mixed fertilizers thereof, and these various fertilizers include aromatic substances,
For example, rose flavor, green leaf flavor, peppermint flavor, flora flavor, etc., are adsorbed or included in an adsorbent substance or clathrate substance at a ratio of 1:10 to 1:100 (by weight) and 5% to 60%. % (by weight), kneaded under pressure, and then granulated or molded to produce a young fertilizer product.

Here, the adsorbent substances used to adsorb aromatic substances are:
Peat, grass charcoal, charcoal, humic acid, zeolite, diatomaceous earth,
Examples include clay minerals such as bentonite. Further, as the clathrate, cyclodextrin can be exemplified.

When fragrant substances adsorbed or included in these adsorbent substances or clathrate substances are mixed with fertilizer and applied, the fragrant substances will not be eluted together with the fertilizer when water is added for plant cultivation, and the fragrant substances will last for a long time. You can smell the scent all over the place. In particular, if the above-mentioned fragrant substance is mixed with an organic fertilizer that emits an unpleasant odor and applied to interior potted plants, etc., it becomes possible to eliminate the unpleasant odor from indoors.

EXAMPLES The effects of the present invention will be specifically explained below with reference to Examples.

Example 1 This example shows the results of testing the aroma sustaining effect of the young fertilizer according to the present invention.

Peat and zeolite were adsorbed with rose flavor and green leaf flavor as fragrant substances in the proportions shown in Table 1, and then processed into ammonium sulfate, phosphoric acid, ammonium phosphate, and chloride as shown in Table 1. A young number fertilizer was prepared by mixing each in the proportions and making it into granules.

Next, 3 g of the winter young fertilizer obtained as described above was applied to each of the five dimensions planted with Western orchids (cymbidium). In addition, as a control, the above-mentioned fertilizers were directly mixed with the above-mentioned fragrant substances and granulated, and the above-mentioned fertilizers were granulated and the above-mentioned fragrant substances were added.
Each was applied in the same manner as above.

Fragrance duration test: The winter leaves fertilized as described above were wrapped and sealed in a vinyl chloride resin bag, and after one hour, the bag was opened and 10 panelists smelled and checked the fragrance. The result is second
As shown in the table.

: No fragrance Master: Power) Su Rikiki 1 "With tag, +:
Scented, ++: Scented Example 2 This example tests the unpleasant odor when a mixture of fragrant substances adsorbed and included in charcoal and cyclodextrin is applied to organic fertilizer with a strong unpleasant odor. The results are shown below.

Peppermint flavor and flora flavor are used as aromatic substances, and these flavors are adsorbed and included in the proportions shown in Table 3, respectively, and added to the fertilizer consisting of oil cake and bone meal in the proportions shown in Table 3. They were added and kneaded to prepare Wakabanni material.

Next, each of the obtained fertilizers was applied to a potted orchid plant in the same manner as described in Example 1, and the odor thereof was checked. As a control, charcoal and cyclodextrin, which did not adsorb or clathrate the above-mentioned fragrant substances, were similarly applied to check the odor.

The results are shown in Table 4.

Table 4 ■ Control group 2 contains only cyclodextrin; ■ Section 3 of the present invention contains peppermint flavor adsorbed on charcoal. ■ Section 3 of the present invention contains peppermint flavor. ■The 4th section of the present invention (■) is the mixture of flora flavor adsorbed to charcoal, and the 4th section (■) of the 0 table is the mixture of flora flavor with cyclodextrin/Wl. 1゜-: Unpleasant smell L Adding aromatic substances to peat:
This figure shows the results of investigating the influence of the mixing ratio of fertilizer adsorbed at a ratio of 3 (weight ratio) on the aroma.

Ammonium sulfate, ammonium phosphorus, lime superphosphate, and chlorinated fertilizers were used as fertilizers, and rose flavor adsorbed on peat in the proportions shown in Table 5 was mixed in with each of these fertilizers. The persistence of the fragrance was investigated.

The results are shown in Table 6.

Peat is halafure It is made by adsorbing a bar.
